Seeing that Gu Zheng had agreed, the old man's face lit up again.
"Qi Ling, what happened just now?"
The old man's attitude made Gu Zheng feel that something was wrong, so he asked the Qi Ling again. In fact, he had not been unconscious for a long time, but he had no idea what had happened during that time. Moreover, the old man's attitude had changed so obviously that he could not figure it out.
This time, the Qi Ling did not answer him. He did not reply for a long time after he asked.
"Qi Ling?"
Gu Zheng asked again, but there was still no reply. He didn't know. At this moment, the Artifact Spirit was still grieving. It felt as if it had become an abandoned child.
"Forget it, as long as it's not a bad thing!"
The Qi Ling did not reply, which was rare. Gu Zheng did not ask again. He did not want to think about things that he could not figure out. At least for now, there was no harm to him. Although the Qi Ling did not reply, he had told him not to worry. At least, the Qi Ling had never lied.
"If you want to join Emei, I can't agree alone. You have to ask the elders in the sect!"
After thinking for a while, Gu Zheng said again. He was the sect leader, so he could make the decision. However, it was better to ask the two elders. After all, the old man's identity was different.
"By the way, what's your name?" When Gu Zheng took out his phone, he remembered that he did not know the old man's name.
“***！”
The old man quickly reported his name. Gu Zheng nodded gently and took out his phone. He called the disciples of Emei and asked them to inform the two elders.
It was a pity that mobile phones could not be used in Emei Sect. However, this was also good. At least there was no need to bring in these modern tools to prevent them from polluting the environment.
The environment there was very good. Even a little pollution would make one's heart ache.
Not long after, Elder Wu You called.
"Sect leader, there is no progress on the wine-making recipe. You don't have to worry too much. Don't worry, we will definitely find it for you!"
When the call connected, Elder Wuyou was the first to speak. He thought that Gu Zheng was calling to ask about the brewing recipe, which was why he said that. Gu Zheng had contacted him yesterday and contacted him again today. He thought that Gu Zheng was anxious.
"No, that's not what I'm here for!"
Gu Zheng's face turned slightly red, while the old man beside him sat there motionlessly.
Glancing at the old man, Gu Zheng continued, "It's like this. I know a Rogue Cultivator who is very strong. He wants to join our Emei Sect. I'm not too sure about this, so I'm asking the two Elders!"
"How strong are Itinerant Cultivators?" Elder Wuyou was also puzzled.
"Very, very strong. Immortal Cultivator Realm!"
Gu Zheng only said that the old man was a cultivator, but he didn't say which realm he was in. The old man was right beside him.
"A loose cultivator at the Immortal Cultivator level!"
Elder Wuyou cried out involuntarily. He and Wuchou were together. The two of them looked at each other and saw the shock and worry in each other's eyes.
There were no Xiuxianists on Mount Emei. If such a Xiuxianist joined, he must be given the status of Taishang Elder. In other words, he must be the person with the highest status other than the Headmaster.
If such a person had any evil intentions in the future, no disciple in Emei would be able to resist.
"Headmaster, what's the relationship between you and this person?"
After thinking for a while, Wuyou asked in a low voice. Gu Zheng said without thinking, "Nothing. We just met. He said that he wanted to join Emei Sect. I thought that with his strength, we wouldn't be at a disadvantage, so I agreed!"
"Since Headmaster has agreed, then there's no problem. It's just that his strength is too strong. After joining the sect, he can only be our Taishang Elder. There are no other suitable positions!"
"Then Taishang Elder it is!"
Gu Zheng didn't think too much. It was fine as long as the two Elders didn't have any objections. Anyway, Emei Sect was very poor now. That little amount of resources was very good in Gu Zheng's eyes, but in the eyes of these Xiuxianists, it was not enough.
Ordinary level raw materials were not very useful to these Xiuxianists. They didn't have the ability to eat Xiuxianists. Moreover, there was no Immortal Power in the outside world. It was extremely difficult to refine Immortal Elixirs.
In this way, Emei Sect didn't have anything worth coveting by such a strong person. Emei Sect did have mid-level raw materials, but Gu Zheng didn't believe that they would go through so much trouble just for that one raw material.
Don't be kidding. With his strength, if he really went to their door and asked for it, Emei Sect wouldn't dare to not give it to him. There was no need to go through so much trouble.
"Headmaster, I want to ask, what's the name of this rogue cultivator?"
Elder Wuyou asked again. There were quite a number of itinerant cultivators, but very few of them had reached the Immortal Cultivator realm. Those itinerant cultivators who could reach this realm were probably older than them or had already made a name for themselves.
Rogue cultivators were not all unknown. Some of them were very famous, but they were elusive. No one knew where they were.
“***！”
Fortunately, Gu Zheng had asked for the old man's name. Otherwise, if the Great Elder asked, he wouldn't even know his name. It would be embarrassing.
"What, * * *!"
Wuyou suddenly screamed. Wuchou's face was also full of shock. Wuyou quickly said, "Headmaster, are you sure his name is * * *, Xiuxianist Realm?"
"I'm sure!"
The other party's immortal power had already probed his body. How could he not be sure? There was no doubt that he was an immortal cultivator, and a powerful one at that.
"I understand. Thank you, Headmaster!"
Wuyou's eyes suddenly lit up again. There was still excitement and surprise on his face. After saying something inexplicable, he hung up the phone. This time, it was Gu Zheng's turn to be confused.
"Why are you thanking me?"
Gu Zheng looked at his phone and thought that it might be because he had pulled in an immortal cultivator, so he was thanking him. However, this immortal cultivator was really not pulled in by him. He wanted to join on his own initiative. It had nothing to do with him.
He didn't know that after hanging up the phone, Wuyou and Wuchou stood face to face. Both of them were so excited that their muscles were trembling.
* * *, it was actually the rogue cultivator * * *. This was a veteran rogue cultivator who had existed since the Flourishing Magic Era. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was the number one rogue cultivator. After the Flourishing Magic Era, many sects had thrown an olive branch to this expert. Even Shushan was the same. As long as he joined Shushan, he would immediately be given the treatment of a supreme elder and considerable freedom.
* * * didn't agree to anyone, but he actually agreed to Gu Zheng.
This could only mean one thing: the relationship between * * * and Gu Zheng was very unusual. Thinking about how Gu Zheng had such strength at such a young age and how mysterious he was, and how Gu Zheng said that his master was a rogue cultivator, perhaps only a rogue cultivator who had existed since the Flourishing Magic Era could teach a disciple like him.
Now that Gu Zheng had * * * pulled in Emei, the relationship between the two was almost obvious.
Wuyou and Wuchou were 90% sure that * * * was Gu Zheng's rogue cultivator master. In this way, everything about Gu Zheng could be explained. It was possible that Gu Zheng's master knew that his disciple had become the head of Emei and was not at ease, so he was willing to join Emei.
Otherwise, with his identity, if he wanted to join a sect, he could choose any of those big sects at will. It would not be Emei's turn.
It was also because of this that the two were so excited and happy. Unfortunately, the two of them didn't know that their guess was completely wrong. However, no one doubted Gu Zheng's origin.
Although * * * was a rogue cultivator, his reputation was not bad. Otherwise, there would not be so many sects wanting to recruit him.
"Miss Li said that you adopted her?"
After hanging up the phone, Gu Zheng, who was bored, found a topic to talk about and asked * * *.
"That's right. Every once in a while, I would go to the secular world to train my mind. That girl was adopted by me out of kindness. She was very capable and had a good heart. After she grew up, no matter what happened to me, she never left me. She was worried about me and brought me here. I originally planned to wait for her to graduate from university, give her a life of riches, and then fake my death and leave. After that, she would have to rely on herself for her life!"
The old man nodded. He wanted to experience the world of mortals and had all kinds of identities. Not only in modern times, but also in ancient times. He had been a minister, a boss, and even a businessman.
During this experience, he happened to meet the girl. The old man calculated that the two of them were fated, so he adopted her and became her grandfather.
"Kind heart!"
Gu Zheng muttered in his heart. Just now, the old man did not seem to be kind to him. However, he would certainly not say these words. If he said it, he would be asking for trouble.
"You have joined Emei. Do you want to stay in Emei or continue to be with the girl?"
Gu Zheng asked again. The girl was lucky and pitiful at the same time. She did not know that the old man who adopted her was not an ordinary person, but a real immortal. If she knew, would she complain that this immortal did not teach her to cultivate?
This thought flashed through Gu Zheng's mind. He also understood how difficult it was to cultivate in the current environment. With the old man's temperament, he would definitely not be willing to teach a disciple. That way, they would be together for too long. If the disciple did not enter the Dao through martial arts and become an immortal cultivator, he would be sad.
If she could not become an immortal cultivator, she would only have a hundred years of lifespan like a mortal. It would be a lie to say that there was no love between them for a hundred years. In the face of being forced to separate, anyone would be like this.
This was just Gu Zheng's own thoughts. He did not know what the old man was thinking, and he did not ask. After all, this was the old man's own private matter. Although the old man had joined Emei, he was still very confused about why he joined, so he would not ask too much.
"I heard on the phone just now. They called you Sect Leader. Are you the Sect Leader of Emei?"
The old man did not answer Gu Zheng's question, but he asked carefully. Gu Zheng nodded. At this time, there was no need to hide his identity as the Sect Leader, although he was captured and became the Sect Leader.
"I have joined Emei. Of course, I will stay in Emei. I will go wherever the Sect Leader is!"
The old man immediately added. Looking at him, Gu Zheng was speechless. Wherever the Sect Leader went, he would go. As the Sect Leader, he didn't have a single Emei disciple following him. He also didn't wish for anyone to follow him.
He was even more unwilling to let the old man follow him. If the old man followed him, it was still unknown who would be serving whom.
"You can stay in Emei if you want, but don't follow me. I still have a lot of things to do, and I have a lot of concerns in the secular world. I will not stay in the sect for a long time to cultivate. Your cultivation is so high, so you can give some advice to our Emei disciples!"
Gu Zheng wouldn't really let him follow. The old man rolled his eyes and nodded. He didn't say anything else.
"But you and your adopted granddaughter have to solve the problem as soon as possible. After that, you can go to Emei. I will go back and host the entrance ceremony for you!"
This time, Miss Li was the most pitiful. It was not easy to get a list, but in the end, her grandfather was kidnapped. Her grandfather was the one who adopted her and raised her. He was the closest person to her.
Thinking about it, Gu Zheng also felt a little sorry, so he asked the old man to solve this problem as soon as possible.
He did not know how the old man was going to give Miss Li riches, but since the old man said so, he must have his own way.
The old man nodded. Actually, even if Gu Zheng did not say it, he would make the appropriate arrangements for Miss Li before leaving. They had lived together for more than ten years and raised a child. He was somewhat reluctant to part with her.
Not to mention a child, even a kitten or a dog would be very affectionate after raising it for so many years.
"Sect Leader, I heard them say that you are looking for a wine brewing recipe?"
The old man asked again. Gu Zheng nodded again and explained, "I don't want an ordinary wine brewing recipe. I want the immortal wine brewing recipe. I want the immortal wine brewing recipe to be useful!"
Just as he finished speaking, Gu Zheng looked at the old man again. This old man was a rogue cultivator, but he was very strong and had lived for many years. Not all rogue cultivators were poor. Even if he did not have the recipe, he should know where to find it.
Moreover, if he was looking for the wine brewing recipe, it would not attract any suspicion.
"Sect Leader, I have the immortal wine and the brewing recipe!"
The old man saw Gu Zheng staring at him and slowly nodded. This time, it was Gu Zheng's turn to be stunned. The wine brewing technique and the recipe to brew the immortal wine that he had always wanted, the old man actually had it.
"Really?" Subconsciously, Gu Zheng asked again.
"Really!"
The old man nodded affirmatively. Not only did he have it, but he had more than one kind. He had been around since the Flourishing Era. Back then, he liked wine very much, but he was a rogue cultivator. It was not easy for him to get immortal wine, so he thought of a way to find a few recipes to brew immortal wine.
He originally wanted to brew and drink it himself, but in the end, he found that brewing wine also required talent. It was not so easy to succeed, just like alchemy. After failing a few times, he gave up.
In the Age of Chaos, resources had dried up, so he didn't even think about brewing wine. Those recipes had been left there. If he hadn't heard Gu Zheng mention it over the phone, he wouldn't have remembered that he still had these things.
Although Elder Wuyou did not directly say that it was to brew immortal wine, something that could make a sect that existed since the Flourishing Era go out to look for it was definitely not an ordinary recipe. Ordinary recipes, even if it was the secret recipe of Maotai, they had many ways to get it.
"Great, I don't need the immortal wine, but the recipe is very important to me!"
Gu Zheng cried out in surprise. The wine brewing recipe that he had been looking for was actually on the old man.
"Can you give me one of your recipes?"
"Not to mention one, I can give you all of them. You are my Sect Leader!"
The old man laughed and sighed in his heart. It was impossible for others to brew immortal wine, but he believed that it would be no problem in the hands of this young man in front of him. He was the successor of a Sage. What could he not do?
"Good, good!"
Gu Zheng was very happy. He had searched high and low for something, only to find it by chance. He had found the wine brewing recipe just like that. At this moment, he really wanted to show off in front of the Artifact Spirit. Unfortunately, the Artifact Spirit did not pay attention to him.
"Lotus Wine, Purple Cloud Wine, Immortal Cloud Peak!"
These were the names of the immortal wine recipes that the old man took out. The names were all very pleasant to hear. The old man had a total of five recipes. The other two were high-grade immortal wine brewing methods. They both required medium or even good grade ingredients. Gu Zheng only took a glance, remembered the contents of the recipes, and returned them to him.
The remaining three were all ordinary immortal wines. The ingredients that they required were also ordinary. Although they required a little more ingredients, at least he had hope of completing them.
Among the three ordinary immortal wines, Gu Zheng finally chose the Lotus Wine.
The Lotus Wine was not a wine brewed from lotus flowers, but this wine had a faint lotus fragrance. Moreover, if one drank too much of this wine, it could automatically stimulate the immortal energy in the body. When one walked, there would be lotus flowers under one's feet. It was very beautiful.
The most important reason why Gu Zheng chose the Lotus Wine was that the Lotus Wine required twelve ingredients. He had nine of them. The Lotus Wine belonged to the rice wine category. The most important point was that among all the ingredients, he had the most immortal rice. In the end, he chose this wine.
With the wine brewing recipe, Gu Zheng was in a good mood. He had been bullied by the Artifact Spirit for a few days in this mission. Now he finally did not have to look at the Artifact Spirit's face and did not have to think about taking a new test.
Unfortunately, the Artifact Spirit seemed to be asleep. No matter what he said, it did not pay attention to him, causing him to lose the chance to show off.
The old man went back on his own. Even though his attitude was very strange, at least he didn't cause any harm to Gu Zheng. Furthermore, he helped Gu Zheng a great deal by solving a huge problem he was facing.
The old man went back to solve the problem of raising his granddaughter.
Although he adopted the girl, he had been poor for more than ten years. The girl did not enjoy a good life with him. Moreover, the girl worked hard. When she was in junior high school, she worked part-time to help her family. When she went to university, she was worried that the old man could not take care of himself, so she brought him to school. Even during school, she worked to earn money.
The old man showed that he loved to drink and often got drunk outside. She brought the old man back home many times.
Also, the reason why she worked at this driving school was that the driving school provided her with a place to live so that her grandfather could live here. This way, she did not have to rent a house for her grandfather. Unfortunately, her grandfather still liked to drink. After drinking, he would just lie down on the side of the road.
When she went to the driving school before, she had already seen the old man. However, at that time, she had to bring Gu Zheng to sign up, so she did not go there first. When she came out, she asked a few times.
Soon, a big news broke out in a driving school in Shen City.
The old man who lived in their driving school had a relative abroad. She was his sister, who was very rich abroad. After asking around, she finally found him.
Her sister was not young anymore. Her health was not very good, and she did not have any children. Her only relative was the old man.
The old man did not marry or have any children in his life, but he had an adopted granddaughter.
The rich sister of the old man soon came to the driving school. The scene of the family reunion was very touching. The two old men only had one child, who was adopted. Miss Li was taken away by the rich sister in a daze. She was also recognized as her granddaughter.
Not only that, the old man's sister also made a will. Miss Li was the only inheritor of all her assets.
The old man had a winery in France worth 200 million US dollars, shares in many banks in England, a small castle in Spain, and a large farm in the United States. His total assets exceeded one billion US dollars.
With so many assets, she, who had always lived in poverty, was now the only inheritor. She could not believe it, as if she was dreaming.
After that, the old man and his' sister 'joined forces to travel around the world. The winery, shares, farm, and castle were all handed over to Miss Li to manage. This girl, who had previously worked when there were no classes, handed out flyers, and thought about whether she could get a few more customers, suddenly became a billionaire.
These changes made her feel at a loss. She wanted to find someone to talk to, but found that her grandfather, who had always lived with her, had disappeared. He said that he had gone to travel around the world. He would occasionally contact her on the phone, but she could not see him.
She did not know whether all this was good or bad for her. However, it seemed that traveling around the world had always been her grandfather's wish. He had said many times that he wanted to travel around the world. When she was young, she had even made a wish that when she grew up, she would make a lot of money and then help her grandfather fulfill his dream.
Now that this dream could finally be fulfilled, it did not seem to be a bad thing.
Everything happened too quickly, so fast that the girl herself was not used to it. At this time, the old man had already followed Gu Zheng to Mount Emei.
The lotus wine required 12 ingredients. Gu Zheng had the main ingredient, immortal rice. Other ingredients such as snow lotus and ganoderma were also available in Emei Sect. They only lacked three ordinary ingredients.
These three ordinary ingredients were Bodhi grass, Resurrection Flower, and Beauty Lotus.
Among them, Bodhi grass and Beauty Lotus were known where to find them. In this way, there was only one ingredient left to gather all the ingredients needed for the wine.
There was only one ingredient left. Even if there was none, Gu Zheng could still raise the level of rice milk to replace it. Rice milk itself was a versatile ingredient. Now that there was no need to worry about it, he was happy and immediately agreed to Sora Aoi's request to bring him to Emei and let him join the sect first.
At Emei, all the disciples gathered together again. This time, they were not in front of the pagoda, but outside the immortal array.
Sora Aoi was the 'master' of their new sect leader, Gu Zheng. He was also a well-known rogue cultivator. If such a person wanted to join the sect, it was worth their attention.
Not to mention them, if Sora Aoi wanted to go to Shushan, they would also give him a grand welcome.
Moreover, Sora Aoi's joining had a different meaning for Emei. Once Sora Aoi joined, it meant that Emei was no longer a sect without cultivators. Not only did they have a powerful veteran cultivator, but their overall strength would instantly rise by more than one level.
With a person like Sora Aoi, even Shushan would treat them differently and be polite.
It was a pity that Gu Zheng did not allow this news to spread. Otherwise, other sects would definitely take the initiative to visit. First, to ask for favors. Second, to inquire. If Emei really had a powerful cultivator in charge, some of the sects that had some conflicts with Emei might not have a good time. They would tremble in fear and worry that Emei would retaliate against them.
At this time, for the safety of their own sect, they would definitely take the initiative to show goodwill.
"They're here!"
Wuchou suddenly said. Two figures appeared at the foot of the mountain. Wuyou and Wuchou, the two elders, hurriedly stepped forward. In a short while, the two figures were in front of them.
"Greetings to Sect Leader, Grand Elder!"
Wuyou and Wuchou led all the disciples to pay their respects. Many disciples secretly looked at Sora Aoi. This was a legendary cultivator. Their Emei finally had another cultivator.
Since the last cultivator's lifespan ran out eight hundred years ago, Emei had not had a cultivator for more than eight hundred years. The status of the sect had plummeted. Now, even some new sects in the Age of Chaos dared to laugh at them.
In the Age of Chaos, this was simply impossible.
Big sects had their dignity. If they could be canceled at will, where would the dignity of the sect be? At that time, because of a joke, the sect might be exterminated. Now, cultivation was not easy, and there was the devil path at the side, so they would not easily allow the sect to be exterminated. However, a certain lesson was inevitable.
Unfortunately, the Sect Leader did not allow this news to spread. Otherwise, they would be able to see those sects coming to apologize in fear.
These days, the Emei disciples also heard some of the rumors that were wildly spreading outside. They said that Emei would soon change its Sect Leader, Emei was about to be finished, and no one was willing to be the Sect Leader of Emei.
There were even some people who said that Emei was about to settle accounts, and all the Emei disciples would become homeless orphans.
Any Emei disciple who heard these words would be very angry, but there was nothing they could do. After all, they were indeed buying immortal wine everywhere and looking for the brewing technique of immortal wine. Even the ordinary Emei disciples who did not know the truth were now doubting whether their new Sect Leader's condition was really serious.
Even they had to admit that for the past twenty years, the Sect Leader of Emei seemed to have been cursed. Whoever became the Sect Leader was unlucky.
Now, all of a sudden, a cultivator wanted to join them. A cultivator, a legendary immortal who could fly in the sky and burrow into the ground. Emei finally had an immortal again. Since there was an immortal, the matter of the Sect Leader's cultivation would naturally not be a problem.
Moreover, there were rumors in the sect that this rogue cultivator was the Sect Leader's' master '. It was also because Feng Yu was not good to the Sect Leader recently that he specially joined Emei and continued to escort the disciples.
No matter what the reason was, it was a fact that their Emei had an immortal again.
"Two Elders, please dispense with the formalities!"
Gu Zheng hurriedly went forward and supported the two Elders. Sora Aoi casually accepted their salute. If there was no Gu Zheng, he would not even look at Emei.
Not to mention Emei, even the main branch of Emei, Shushan, Sora Aoi also did not put them in his eyes. Shushan had five cultivators, but only one could be compared to him.
"Sect Leader, Taishang Elder, please!"
Wuyou and Wuchou were carefully sizing up Sora Aoi. Seeing that Sora Aoi's attitude towards Emei was very ordinary, and his eyes seemed to be on Gu Zheng, they were even more convinced of their judgment.
It must be that the master was worried about his disciple and followed him into Emei. Thinking of this, the two of them were a little proud. They caught a Sect Leader, but they did not expect that they would also send a veteran cultivator. Last time, they really made the right decision to catch Gu Zheng.
If Sora Aoi was Gu Zheng's' master ', then they did not have any worries. They also did not expect Sora Aoi to be completely united with Emei and treat Emei as his own home. That was impossible. After all, Sora Aoi was not like them, a disciple who grew up in Emei.
As long as he cared about Gu Zheng, it was enough. No matter what, Gu Zheng was their Sect Leader. If he cared about Gu Zheng, it was equivalent to caring about the entire Emei. It was equivalent to becoming Emei's protective talisman.
With him here, in the future, they did not have to worry about anyone harming Emei, let alone anyone harming Gu Zheng. This way, they could let Gu Zheng grow up in peace. When Gu Zheng also became an immortal cultivator, it would be time for Emei to truly recover.
The entrance ceremony was actually very simple, but this time, it was an immortal cultivator who joined, and a veteran cultivator at that. The two Elders tried their best to make it as grand as possible.
Seeing the Emei Pagoda in operation, Sora Aoi showed a surprised expression for the first time. After knowing the effect of the Emei Pagoda, he also wanted to go in and have a try. Unfortunately, without the support of an immortal cultivator, the Emei Pagoda could not condense an invisible person with the same strength as him. It was useless to go in.
However, Sora Aoi also praised the effect of the Emei Pagoda. At the same time, he also expressed his doubts about why Emei had always been lonely with the Emei Pagoda.
Later, he found out that before Gu Zheng became the Sect Leader of Emei, the Emei Pagoda had always been in a closed state, which was tantamount to a decoration.
It was Gu Zheng's credit again, so Sora Aoi was not surprised at all.
Who was Gu Zheng? He was the successor of a Sage. With such an identity, it was normal for him to do more incomprehensible things.
Not to mention in their small world, even in the big world of Untainted Land, Gu Zheng still had a prominent identity. Such a person, not to mention just reactivating the Emei Pagoda, even if he turned the Emei Pagoda into a top-grade immortal weapon, Sora Aoi would still think it was normal.
Sora Aoi did not know that the Emei Pagoda was actually a top-grade immortal weapon, but it had not recovered from its injury.
However, he also sighed with emotion. Emei was lucky to find a person like Gu Zheng to be the Sect Leader. It could be imagined that when Gu Zheng grew up, Emei would definitely benefit from it. It could even move to Untainted Land as a whole and expand it would not be a problem.
"Sect Leader, do you have the wine recipe?"
In the backyard, the two Elders asked Gu Zheng again. Before coming, Gu Zheng had told the two Elders that he had found the wine recipe. There were still more than 20 days before the end of the test task. There was still time. As long as there were enough raw materials, the Lotus Wine could be brewed in a day.
"Yes, now we still lack three raw materials. Elder Ouyang will take me to find two of them. As for the Resurrection Flower, I want you to ask more about it. If you have it, we will buy it at a high price. If not, you can also find out where to find it!"
Although Gu Zheng had the Rice Milk, after all, he had to use one of the qualifications to upgrade his grade. He only had three qualifications, so it was better not to use them.
"Okay, leave it to us!"
Wuyou and Wuchou looked at Sora Aoi again. Sure enough, the 'Master' was the best to the 'disciple'. Knowing that Gu Zheng had something to do, he immediately came out to help.
Now they were more sure that Sora Aoi was Gu Zheng's' Master '.
"Okay, then I'll leave it to the two Elders!"
Gu Zheng did not know their little plan. If he knew, he would not know what to think. He and Sora Aoi had just met. At first, he almost fell into his trap. Who knew that Sora Aoi's brain was abnormal and he insisted on joining Emei?
Sora Aoi did not know what the two were thinking. If he knew, he would only object.
The difference between him and this' master 'was too great. He did not dare, nor did he have the qualifications to be this' master '. He was only a servant, a servant in charge of protecting the little master. He believed that as long as he did this well, the saint would definitely reward him greatly.
After completing the induction ceremony and asking them to inquire about the Resurrection Flower, Gu Zheng left with Sora Aoi.
This time, they left directly by flying. Sora Aoi had the ability to fly in the air, but there was no immortal power on Earth. Purely using immortal power to fly in the air would consume a lot of energy. Nowadays, cultivators would not do so if they did not have to. It was not like the Prosperous Era, when there were many immortals flying in the sky.
They flew very fast. Not long after, they arrived at the Kunlun Mountains.
Bodhi Grass was only produced in Kunlun. It could be seen in all the mountain ranges of Kunlun, but it was not found in other places. Whether it was Mount Shu, Taihang Mountains, Tianshan Mountains, Wuyi Mountains, Changbai Mountains, or other mountain ranges, there was no Bodhi Grass.
Bodhi Grass could be used to make Bodhi incense. The Buddhist Sect used it more, and it was mainly used by Tibetan Buddhists. There was very little of it in other aspects.
With Sora Aoi, they flew from Mount Emei to the Kunlun Mountains in just half a day. Along the way, with the protection of Sora Aoi's immortal power, Gu Zheng did not feel any discomfort. He only felt yearning.
This was the Immortal Cultivation Realm. They could really fly in the air and soar in the sky. In fact, they could fly after entering the Qi Refinement stage. However, flying was slow and required the help of external forces. For example, they needed an immortal sword to fly.
Back then, many disciples of Mount Shu flew on their swords. For this reason, they even built a huge Hidden Sword Peak. There were many immortal swords inside. Disciples who had reached the Qi Refinement stage could choose their own immortal sword.
Only those in the Soul Formation Realm could break away from external forces and fly in the air, but their speed was slower. When they reached the Void Return Realm, their speed was even faster than an ordinary plane.
"Sect Master, this is Mount Kunlun. Although there is not much Bodhi Grass, Mount Kunlun definitely has it. That thing has no other use other than being used to make incense for Buddhist cultivators. No one will deliberately pick it!"
Sora Aoi did not know how to address Gu Zheng, so he simply addressed Gu Zheng as Sect Master like Wuyou and the others.
Gu Zheng was the Sect Master of Mount Emei, and he was the Grand Supreme Elder. It was not an exaggeration to address him as such.
Not Sect Master, but by name? This was not good. Gu Zheng's future was imaginable. He would definitely surpass him. He could call him by name now, but in the future, it would not be good to change it.
It was also not good to call him Young Master. The Sage did not admit that he was his master. If he called him that, who knew if the Sage would be happy. Before there was a suitable name, calling him Sect Master seemed to be the most suitable.
"Okay, thank you, Elder Ouyang!"
Flying in the air was indeed enjoyable. After landing on the ground, Gu Zheng was still a little unsatisfied. For the first time, he wanted to cultivate quickly in the future. He had Gokusen's Celestial Art, and there was no barrier to breakthrough. As long as his Celestial Power reached a certain level, he could enter the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
Gu Zheng called for the Weapon Spirit in his heart again. Since the old man came, this guy had been silent and ignored him. Every time Gu Zheng asked the old man what he had done to him, the old man swore that nothing was wrong, which made Gu Zheng very confused.
"You are welcome, Sect Master. Your cultivation is different from others. You can reach the Immortal Cultivation Realm faster. In the future, there will be no problem for you to reach the Jin Xian Realm. When you reach the Jin Xian Realm, you can cut through the void and enter the wider space of the Untainted Land. You can cultivate faster there!"
Soran Aoi said with a smile. Entering the Untainted Land had always been his dream. The Earth was too small, and resources were scarce. As long as he reached the Untainted Land, he could cultivate better.
Unfortunately, he could not cut through the void until he reached the Jin Xian Realm. Even if he was one of the strongest people on Earth, he could only continue to stay here without the ability to cut through the void.
"Gu Zheng, cultivate quickly and reach the Jin Xian Realm as soon as possible!"
The Weapon Spirit, who had not replied to Gu Zheng, suddenly appeared and called Gu Zheng. In fact, the Weapon Spirit had been there these days, but it was sulking like a child. It was not easy to contact the Lord Gokusen, but the Lord Gokusen still left it here.
However, Soran Aoi's words just now reminded it. If Gu Zheng cultivated quickly, he could reach the Jin Xian Realm as soon as possible. With the strength of the Jin Xian Realm, he could cut through the void and return to the Untainted Land.
Although returning to the Untainted Land did not mean returning to Gokusen, it was much easier to contact Gokusen in the Untainted Land than here. Usually, when it missed its old master, it could ask Gu Zheng to go back and take a look.
With this idea, it was no longer silent.
"Hey, Weapon Spirit, you are awake?"
"What do you mean I am awake? I have been awake all this time!" The Weapon Spirit said angrily.
"You are awake and you are ignoring me. What's wrong with you?"
"I am fine. You should cultivate quickly and reach the Jin Xian Realm. I will take you to the Untainted Land. It is bigger and better there!" The Weapon Spirit said quickly. It now had a goal to let Gu Zheng advance to the Jin Xian Realm. If Gu Zheng could go to the Untainted Land, it was equivalent to it going back.
"It is not a problem for me to cultivate quickly. You have to tell me, what did this old man do to me that day? Why did his attitude change so quickly?"
After a moment of silence, the Weapon Spirit said slowly, "That day, he checked your immortal power and alarmed the Lord Gokusen!"
Gu Zheng was slightly stunned. He looked at Soran Aoi and suddenly understood. No wonder this old man's attitude was so good. It seemed that he had met a backer behind him. He did not know that Gokusen was a Sage. He only knew that Gokusen was one of the Twelve Holy Immortals. He did not know his specific identity and status.
However, an immortal who could make the Gokusen Order and even the Untainted Land was definitely not weak. He was much stronger than Soran Aoi. It was likely that Soran Aoi was threatened and changed his attitude.
After understanding this, Gu Zheng was no longer nervous. He had never seen that cheap master of his once, but he seemed to be quite powerful. At least the old man was afraid and did not dare to treat him badly. No matter what, it was a good thing.
"Weapon Spirit, does he know of your existence?" Gu Zheng asked again.
"He does not know. He is not qualified!"
Speaking of this, the Weapon Spirit became proud again. Although Soran Aoi had the Holy Seal of the Lord Gokusen, it was to let him take good care of Gu Zheng. It did not mean that he had acknowledged him.
Even if Gokusen admitted that there were many immortals who served the Lord Gokusen, not many of them could enter its eyes. It would not value them.
"That's good!"
Gu Zheng once again heaved a sigh of relief. Soran Aoi did not know of the existence of the Weapon Spirit, which meant that he did not know of his biggest secret. Now, even if he knew that he had immortal power, it would be fine.
In this way, Gu Zheng did not have any worries. His mood was even more relaxed and happy.
Soran Aoi looked at Gu Zheng strangely. Gu Zheng's expression had changed a lot, causing him to be baffled. He wanted to ask, but he did not know how to ask.
"Weapon Spirit, it's time to work. We already have the recipe. Now we need to find the raw materials. There are still three raw materials missing. First, we need to find the Bodhi grass. Soran Aoi said that Kunlun Mountain has it, but Kunlun Mountain is so big, no one knows where it is. You have to help us find it.
Also, if you have any good materials, you have to remind me of them! "The Weapon Spirit could detect everything within a ten meter radius. Whether it was the sky or the ground, or the water or the rocks, the Weapon Spirit could find anything good.
"Okay, I will help you. Let's go find it now!"
The Weapon Spirit readily agreed. Gu Zheng would only get a reward after completing the test. With a reward, he could cultivate faster. Even if he was very stingy and regarded everything in Gokusen's command as his own, in order to let Gu Zheng cultivate faster, he still had to give him a part.
Not only did he have to give, but he also had to give more.
With the help of the Weapon Spirit, the speed of finding things was much faster. Gu Zheng just pretended to look around and quickly walked forward. Soran Aoi was also searching. He had seen the Bodhi grass before. He had picked it in the past, but it had been too long, so he could not remember what it looked like.
Soran Aoi was searching very carefully, but his speed was not slow. After all, his strength was much stronger than Gu Zheng.
"Calming Spirit Grass, ordinary grade!"
The Weapon Spirit's voice suddenly sounded. He had not found the Bodhi grass yet, but he had found another kind of ordinary grade raw material first. The Calming Spirit Grass had the effect of concentrating and calming the mind. It could be used in medicine and could also be used in food cultivation. It was a good raw material.
The effect of the Calming Spirit Grass was similar to the Calming Spirit Technique. However, as long as it was an ordinary grade material, Gu Zheng wanted it. There was more than one stalk of Calming Spirit Grass. There were a total of six stalks, all of which were picked by Gu Zheng.
"Rainbow Flower, ordinary grade!"
"Carefree Fruit, inferior grade!"
"Fleece Flower, ordinary grade!"
More than an hour later, Gu Zheng found several good raw materials, all of which he dug out and put together. Soran Aoi took Gu Zheng directly to the depths of the Kunlun Mountains. This was a primeval forest, a place where no one had been, and there was basically no pollution.
Only in such a place, there would be so many ordinary grade raw materials.
Soran Aoi was more and more surprised. He had been paying attention to Gu Zheng. He did not see how Gu Zheng explained, but he found good raw materials one by one. He even found the Fleece Flower underground.
Soran Aoi dared to conclude that Gu Zheng must have a secret method that he did not know.
It was not surprising that he had a secret method. It would be incomprehensible if the successor of a Sage did not have a secret method.
Throughout the afternoon, Gu Zheng found more than a dozen raw materials, seven of which were ordinary grade. Unfortunately, there was no Bodhi grass. However, he was not discouraged. After all, Bodhi grass was not the kind of weed that could be seen everywhere on the street. It was also a famous raw material. It was normal to be a little troublesome.
However, in this deep mountain, it was like a treasure house. There were so many good things. When he had time in the future, he must ask Soran Aoi to bring him a few more times to find more raw materials.
This place was much better than the Taihang Mountains that he went to last time.
At night, he camped in the mountains. When he came, he did not bring a tent. However, thinking that Soran Aoi knew his secret and knew his identity, it was fine as long as he did not know the existence of the Weapon Spirit.
Gu Zheng avoided him and took out the tent and sleeping bag from the Primitive Space.
"Space fairy weapon!"
Seeing Gu Zheng coming back with a pile of things in his hand, Soran Aoi immediately thought of something. Space fairy weapon, a precious space fairy weapon. He did not expect that Gu Zheng even had such a treasure.
As the name implied, a space fairy weapon was a kind of fairy weapon that could open up another space. The common ones were storage belts, storage bracelets, mustard seed bags of Buddhism, and so on.
Even during the Flourishing Era, there were not many Spatial Immortal Devices. To make a Spatial Immortal Device, one had to be at least a Golden Immortal of the Great All-Embracing Heaven and a mighty figure who had comprehended the order of space. Golden Immortals of the Great All-Embracing Heaven would not stay on Earth, so there were very few Spatial Immortal Devices here.
But when he thought of Gu Zheng's master, Soran Aoi was relieved.
It was normal for the successor of a Sage to have a space fairy weapon. It would be strange if he did not.
Before he knew Gu Zheng's identity, if he knew that there was such a fairy weapon, he would definitely want to snatch it. But now that he knew the person behind Gu Zheng, he did not have such thoughts at all. He did not want to die.
Who knew if the Sage had set up any final protection on his successor? If there was, the Sage could kill him with a thought if he wanted to snatch it.
Besides, he had promised the Sage to protect Gu Zheng. If he snatched Gu Zheng's things now, no matter where he went, he could not escape. It was simply courting death.
"Sect Leader, you must not tell others that you have a space fairy weapon. In front of outsiders, you must never take it out like this!"
Soran Aoi not only did not want to snatch it, but also tried to persuade Gu Zheng. He was powerful, but he was not the only powerful person on Earth. There were several people in the Void Return Realm. If others did not know Gu Zheng's background, they might have evil intentions. That would be very unfavorable for Gu Zheng.
"I know, don't worry!"
Gu Zheng took out something this time to test Soran Aoi's attitude. Sure enough, Soran Aoi did not have any other thoughts. Instead, he was wholeheartedly for him.
This was good, but Soran Aoi's worry was unnecessary. Even Wuyou and Wuchou did not know that he had this ability. How could he show it in front of outsiders?
Gu Zheng made barbecue in the evening. There was no shortage of small animals in the deep mountains. With the experience of being with Changfeng, he was very handy in doing this.
Now that he had more and better raw materials, he could take whatever he needed as long as he avoided Soran Aoi. This time, the barbecue made by Gu Zheng was more delicious than last time. In a short while, it attracted a lot of wild beasts.
These wild beasts did not dare to approach and only dared to watch from a distance. Gu Zheng was not worried about wild beasts at all. Even if there were spirit beasts, he was not afraid. Anyway, with Soran Aoi following him, ordinary spirit beasts were not his opponents at all.
"Sect Leader, I didn't expect your culinary skills to be so good!"
After taking a bite of Gu Zheng's barbecue, Soran Aoi was stunned again. The fragrance was very good, but he did not expect the taste to be several times better than the fragrance. He had been cultivating for so many years and lived for so many years. Except for the food made by some immortal chefs during the Flourishing Method Era, this was the best thing he had ever eaten.
Those immortal chefs during the Flourishing Method Era were so delicious because of the different raw materials. He believed that Gu Zheng had those raw materials, so his cooking would not be worse than those immortal chefs.
This time, he had guessed correctly. Gu Zheng's master was the most powerful immortal chef. What he learned first was cooking, not strength.
